Insidious: The Last Key Review Insidious: The Last Key is a fairly adequate supernatural horror thriller, with a few decent scares and another great turn by Lin Shaye as the unassuming but deeply heroic ghostbuster Elise Rainier. But compared to all the other films in the Insidious series, and to other horror films in general, it’s clearly a bit of a letdown. Insidious: The Last Key is the fourth film in the franchise, and the second prequel in a row. The previous entry, Insidious: Chapter 3, revealed how Elise met her comic relief sidekicks Specs (Leigh Whannell) and Tucker (Angus Sampson), and the new film - which isn’t called a “chapter”, a fact which already implies that this is more like a footnote - is all about their first major adventure as an official team.
